Adapting to Climate Change in Reindeer Herding:

This paper discusses the role of nation-states and their systems of governance as sources of barriers and solutions to adaptation to climate change from the point of view of Saami reindeer herders.  

This paper argues that the key to handle permanent changes successfully is that herders themselves have sufficient degrees of freedom to act. Considering the similarities in herding practices in the fours nation-states between which Saami culture is now divided – Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia – the systems of governance are surprisingly different. Indeed, the very definition of what is required to be defined as an ethnic Saami is very different in the three Nordic countries. We argue that timely adjustments modifying the structures of governance will be key to the survival of the Saami reindeer herding culture. Since the differences in governance regimes – and the need to change national governance structures – are so central to our argument, we spend some time tracing the origins of these systems.
